Royal Ascot Day 2

One of my favourite racing puzzles of the year is the Hunt Cup. However, many stabs over the years have proved fruitless but nevertheless, always like to have a go. This year's ante post fancy Axiom comes in good form but would benefit from a drop of rain as the track appeared to favour speed on day 1. Also like Mia's Boy with Ryan Moore aboard and tentatively suggest Bencoolen as a left field bet.

Top race of the day is the Prince of Wales Stakes where Tartan Bearer puts his credentials on the line. A strong french challenge could thwart him though and interesting to see if Monsieur Rouget can sustain his hot streak across the channel. A race for watching!!

Fillies handicaps are normally worth avoiding but have had Rose Diamond in my notebook since last summer and she should run a good race at rewarding odds.

best of luck.....
